    A schooner at Eastlakes is 425ml so they do exist.

    anyway, schooners are for girls.

    So, you're saying that (until recent times). the only 'Real' Men were.... Poms back in Blighty drinking PINTS... while us wussy Aussies skolled....(half-sized) 'Schooners'. ?

    I always ordered Imperial pints if so inclined to have a larger beverage.

    Nowadays I prefer my drinks to be at least of legal age, single, and around 30ml

    And down south, in my youth we only had pots. (middy in some states) Schooners didn't exist.

    We get em all now. Beer is proof that there is a god and he loves us.
